I have been trying to find out what's wrong with the lemons, the tree was planted last spring. the fruit inside seems to be ok tho not fully ripe. there is a spongy patch on the outside, could it be frost, I live in Northern Tablelands NS W

Answer:
Hi Gloria, the problem with your citrus looks a little bit like citrus scab which can sometimes be seen at the end of summer. You can treat it by using a copper spray like the yates leaf curl copper spray.
